They changed the name to Bite Force after the bite force quotient, which is used to measure crushing force in animal jaws. Bite Force once again destroyed the competition, even beating Tombstone in a rematch in the Semi-Finals, before going on to win another championship for a third time.īite Force was originally going to be named Chompy, but it was changed when the team learned there was another robot in the competition named Chomp, which went on to defeat Bite Force in Season 2. Internally, Bite Force was completely revamped as it dished out punishment in every fight it fought in, earning the championship for a second time.įor Season 4, Bite Force once again didn't gain many visual improvements except for having the battle damage repaired, the paint restored once more, and reportedly, more "knockout power" in its bar.

However, Bite Force would compete in and win the exhibition rumble at the end of the season against Wrecks and Witch Doctor.įor Season 3, Bite Force didn't really change much externally, except for a chain guard after losing its weapon to Chomp last season. Bite Force didn't perform as well in Season 2 as it did in Season 1, defeating Mohawk in the qualifying round and The Ringmaster in the round of 32 before losing to Chomp in the round of 16. This is the version that Paul wanted to build for Season 1, but he didn't because he thought that there were too many robots with spinning weapons. En route to the title, Bite Force defeated the legendary Warhead, edged out HyperShock and Overhaul, destroyed Ghost Raptor, and defeated the fearsome Tombstone.įor Season 2, the robot was completely redesigned with an asymmetrical vertical spinning bar instead of its grabbing jaw and ran on wheels instead of tracks.

These magnets, however, had little effect on the floor of the BattleBox.īite Force performed well in its debut outing, winning the first season of the modern era. The robot also had high-power magnets attached to the tracks in order to increase grip. However, in order to make weight with the steel wedge, the top claw of the robot had to be removed and the little "wedgelets" could not be used. It also had multiple interchangeable setups - ranging from small blue "wedgelets" which could be mounted to the front of the robot to a large steel wedge could be mounted to the back of the robot to battle spinners. Initially a tracked robot armed with a grabbing jaw to lift and even overturn opposing robots, it would later evolve into a wheeled vertical spinner.

Statistics correct as of its most recent appearance on the show, or if not applicable, qualification attempt.īite Force was a heavyweight robot which competed in the first four seasons of the BattleBots reboot, built by Paul Ventimiglia of Team Aptyx Designs.
